ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

British/Canadian Ron Carroll has created and launched hit shows, including the Netflix global competition phenomenon Blown Away and Undercover Boss Canada.

He began as a local newspaper reporter in Liverpool before moving into television production, freelancing for more than two decades across Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, and Toronto—collecting both awards and the occasional anxiety attack along the way.

After 22 years abroad, Ron returned to England's Northwest to write the book he wished he'd had during his rockiest freelance moments. Today, as a consultant, he works with production companies, brands, streamers, and networks on both sides of the Atlantic, helping them shape and sell new show formats.

He's watched the entertainment industry evolve, adapted his craft to keep pace, and occasionally wondered if he should have become a plumber instead. His message to every freelancer is simple: burnout isn't a badge of honor—it's a business liability.
